Morning came and I felt the warm sun on my face, I got up took a shower, brushed my teeth, and got ready to go to school.
"Luna!!! You're going to be late if you don't hurry up!!" My mom yelled out.
I quickly descended the stairs,
"Good morning mom,I'm ready" I said while giving her a kiss on the cheek,
"Breakfast on the table, and hurry up. Oscar's coming down any second, I gotta go get ready." She said rapidly.
"Thanks mom, I love you and thank you for understanding my decision," I replied
"You're welcome sweet girl, I love you too" she said while hugging me.
Mom went up to get ready, I was sitting down and eating pancakes. Everything was quiet until he came down, he looked at me then went to the fridge.
"Good morning" I said but he rolled his eyes and kept staring inside the fridge.
"Oscar at least have the decency to acknowledge me, I'm a person," I said rolling my eyes.
"Luna I really don't even want to be in the same room as you right now, let alone talk to you." He replied coldly,
"I made my decision, isn't that what you wanted? I just don't understand why you're so upset" I said.
"Why I'm so upset?! I poured out my heart to you!! I told you I loved you and you go and do this!! I have fucking feelings Luna!!!" He said with a raising voice.
"I'm sorry Oscar but you left me no choice, we're clearly not good for each other. All we do is argue and honestly I'm tired of it, I did what was best for me, and no offense...you're not what's best for me right now" I replied sadly.
"I'm sorry if I'm not good enough for you, you keep doing what you do Luna" He replied.
"And what I do is what?" I asked,
"Choose others over people who've been there for you your whole entire life, and did nothing but love you,bunch of wasted years I'll never get back...but screw me right, hope you have fun with Brandon" He said while walking out the door.
I drove to school, and got greeted by Brandon in the parking lot,
"Good morning princess, how's your day going so far?" He said embracing me.
"It started out rough, but I'm better.. now that I get to see you and do this.." I said while grabbing him into a passionate kiss.
"What was that for?" He asked smiling,
"Just wanted to show you how happy you make me" I replied blushing,
"Awww, you make me happy too my love" he gushed while planting a kiss on my forehead.
"Let's get to class, before I get another detention" I said making us laugh.
While we were walking to class, we saw Oscar walking with Amy and I thought how does a guy claim he loves you that much but moves on so quickly?
"Hey Oscar" Brandon said while doing their handshake.
"Hi Brandon," he replied back with a fake smile, our eyes met each other and we both looked away.
"So you guys are not going to greet each other?" Amy asked playfully,
"Nope! I want nothing to do with her, let's go" Oscar replied.
"Oh that's so rich Oscar, grow the fuck up. I made a decision that was good for me, good for my mental and emotional health. And if you claimed so much as to 'care about me' like you say you do, you'd be happy for me not be against me." I said angrily.
"Whoa whoa...what's happening here? Why are you guys fighting?" Brandon asked.
"Let me inform you Brandon on what's been happening, Luna here...your so called girlfriend, has been lying to me and giving me false hope thinking that I was going to be with her, she led me on for years and I was the stupid one to believe that she'd ever love me the way I loved her." Oscar said.
"Luna? What is he talking about?" Brandon asked sadly.
I stayed quiet and I looked up at him with tears in my eyes,
"Oh...I see, I'm sorry but whatever's going on you need to figure it out because I refuse to be a part of it." Brandon said while storming off.
"You just had to didn't you?" I said to Oscar,
"He deserved to know the truth, we both know you're leading him on also Luna. Because that's what you do." He replied and those words broke me completely.
"I hate you," I said and walked away.
How could he say something like that? I don't lead people on.....do I? If I do, it's definitely unintentional.
I started looking for Brandon so I could explain, I found him sitting in the stairs just staring at the ground.
"Brandon? Can we talk?" I asked shyly,
"I don't know...Can we Luna? I have no idea what's going on, my thoughts are everywhere right now." He replied shakily.
"I know...I know, I'm sorry. I owe you an explanation and I'm not sure if you're going to like it." I said while taking a seat next to him.
"I don't care, just tell me what's happening," he replied.
"Me and Oscar grew up together, I had a little crush on him when I was young and apparently he did too. I ended up moving and we lost contact after a few years, to be honest I was looking forward to reconnecting with him and I thought he was going to be the same but clearly he's not. He was dating the popular cheerleader, he lost...um...my special bracelet I gave him. I kept his necklace but he—-he lost it, so I kinda just gave up on us, he kept declaring his love for me any chance he got but no actions were being taken. I can admit that I love him even if I hate him right now, he's my best friend...and he'll always have a part in my heart. I'm sorry that I didn't tell you about all of this, it's just I deal with certain things alone and I'm learning to let people in, one thing I know Brandon is that I don't know who he is right now and I don't want to know. I just know that I'm in love with you, so so in love with you. You make me happy, you make me feel safe and loved and I would be crazy if I said I didn't want you to be in my life, I choose you and I'll keep on choosing you because the universe is working in our favor and who are we to deny it." I said wholeheartedly with tears running down my face.
"Luna, honestly I was in a bad place these past couple of years but meeting you made everything better. My world was better, my life, my games, my everything was better with you in it, and I would be crazy too if I said I didn't want you to be in my life, because you're the most amazing girl I've ever met. I want to continue on loving you and making you happy for no matter how long we have together, I'm glad the universe is working in our favor and I'm in love with you too princess." He said engulfing me in a hug.
With Brandon everything was different, I felt so safe in his arms. I love being with him, I believe Oscar will be okay, maybe he'll find someone that makes him happy too, but I'll tell you what I found, the things that you want aren't necessarily what you need.

Hey loves, sorry I haven't been updating but hoped you enjoyed and I'll see you in the next one. Love ya my little freaks, nerds, and weirdoes. Byeeeee!!
